If they ever assemble a BIAB All-Star Band, you will surely be on the front row. Thanks for posting another totally enjoyable song for us.

Fred,
This is about as profound a compliment as I could hope for. So glad you liked that one.

Floyd,
Thank you - and what about that amazing coincidence with Tom Adams. What are the chances that there could be two blues guitar playing Tom Adams's, in a playing-ability photo finish. I like to boast that I can identify any player inside of ten notes - not true, of course - but in this case I was completely fooled. I know our Tom Adams' sound pretty well and as far as blues guitar playing goes, he's very tough to beat. It's a kudo to the other Tom that he could confound me like that!

Peter,
Thank you kindly. I noticed you got some real heavyweights to do RealTracks, but I must tell you that Pat Martino, Kenny Barron and Ron Carter - of all the people - did a disappointing job. I was wondering if you'd be interested in some RealTracks from ... me! You can get them at the highly discounted price of ... FREE! My approach would be progession-based. As you know, there are two iconic progression in jazz: the blues, and rhythm changes. I would do these at various tempos and levels of complexity with varying instrumentation. At the outer limits, the blues can take advantage of every chord in the your "chord builder."
You may find this interesting: During my time away, I thought I had a solution to the 3x+1 conjecture (n -> n/2 if n even, n -> (3n+1)/2 if n odd - iterating, every 3x+1 sequence reaches 1). Yes, what every CS student gets as a programming exercise still remains unresolved. I know what a proof should look like, but the devil's in the details, as they say.
Let me know about those RealTracks.

Hi Dean, Maybe now is the time for someone, perhaps you, to explain what a "dumper" is.
A dumper is someone who comes to the forum only to place his songs and doesn't care about the submissions of other people. You can choose if you are one or not. But I would appreciate it if you came here more often. Guenter

Hi Dean. Jim and I are brothers. I may have confused you by posting twice as well.

Hallo Günter,
Vielen Dank, dass Sie erklären, was ist ein "dumper". Es ist nicht meine Absicht, eine schlechte Forum Mitglied sein. Aber im Wettbewerb um die Zeit ich noch habe ist ein weiterer Beruf. Als Arzt in den Ruhestand bedeutet nicht, er ist nicht mehr ein Arzt. Es ist das gleiche mit Mathematikern, die sich mit der Fortsetzung ihrer Forschung besessen sind. Aber ich schätze Ihre Ehrlichkeit und ich werde versuchen, härter, meine Teilnahme zu verbessern.
Dean
